Parvizi Near The Top

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Not long ago, Iraj Parvizi had a smile on his face and said: "Oh, I just got it and will probably be the chip leader soon."

Thus far, Parvizi has kept that promise as his stack skyrocketed to almost half a million.

Edward Hatzakortzian was among those to bust before the break, according to Fraser MacIntyre he had most of his stack in preflop with aces and called it off on the flop against Joao Simao. The latter had flopped trips with {K-}{K-}{Q-}{X-} and Hatzakortzian found no help.

Ben Lamb was also sent to the rail and has since re-entered.
